Cheese
before bedtimeThe story behind the poem

I once read a book about Angels. The author firmly
believed in their existence and based the book upon her beliefs
claiming that many people had claimed to have seen one.
She wrote that we all have our own Guardian Angels who watch over
us, particularly in times of illness or great hardship.
Despite the lack of any presentation of scientifically based factual
evidence to support her theories, I still found myself wanting to
believe in them too.
In spite of our pragmatic misgivings and suspicions, it seemed such
a lovely notion to me that we are never alone in this world.
Are they the stuff of Dreams or something more?....
I cannot say, but I do believe in Angels.
